"Since my last visit to Panera. This was my first culinary experience at the Wickham site. Many things have changed - everything (relative to me) all the better. While the menu still maintains old favorites, I found many new options listed (I am especially excited to see the intake of rice dishes! . My Go-to, You Pick 2 order remained intact, but I was surprised to see that the Frontega Chicken Panini now held from menu status, which means that you had to know about its existence to request it specifically. When I heard that, I was a little hesitant to order, to ask myself whether a lack of regular preparation experience would be less palatable than I remembered. But my fears were unfounded. My Frontega Chicken Panini Sandwich had more meat, more Chipotle Mayonnaise, more everything than ever. Fork tender chicken, sizzling-sweet mayo, juicy tomatoes, garden-fresh basil, and zesty onions combined between two roasted slices of Panini bread for the best take on the sandwich I ever had. (I must give the staff to be so helpful throughout the process. As a big fan of Asian-inspired dishes, I first tried the Thai soup. Piping-hot, with only a hint of yellow curry for full-bodied warmth, the broth boasted a bouquet of savory and sweet, vegetal and spicy (Shitake mushrooms, red peppers, Edamame, lemongrasss, ginger, gallangal and lime peel to name some ingredients. Served with a soft, crispy baked baguette for diving, the soup could be enjoyed long before it was cool enough for a spoon. Last, but certainly not least, the Orange Cream Scone delivered the last flour on my warm savory meal. As I recalled, this handcrafted fabric tasted like a cream fur in baked form - Floury-soft inside, candy-shelled without, and reporting with shaved orange bark for extra bursts of citrus on the palate. My culinary experience here restored my belief in Panera Bread, and a short look at the unforeseen menu items made me eager. I look forward to another delicious lunch! Thank you for the wonderful experience!"
